The home beyond, or, Views of heaven and its relation to earth . t hear some heaven song, learned on earth, trilled by someclear ringing voice that we have often heard before ? The saints on earth, when sweetly they converse,And the dear favors of kind heaven rehearse,Each feels the others joys, both doubly shareThe blessings which devoutly they compare,If saints such mutual joy feel here below,When they each others heavenly foretastes knowWhat joys transport them at each others sight,When they shall meet in empyreal height!Friends, even in heaven, one happiness Avould miss,Should they not know each other when in bliss. Bishop Ken Our first-born and our only babe bereft! Too fair a flower was she for this rude earth! The features of her beauteous infancy Have faded from me, like a passing cloud, Or like the glories of an evening sky; And seldom hath my tongue pronounced her name Since she was summoned to a happier sphere. But that dear love, so deeply wounded then, I in my soul with silent faith sincere Devoutly cherish till we meet again.
